15 psi? A bunch -- I'd say around 300 whp and more.

Looking around h-t and other forums, pushing 250+ whp out of an A3 motor with 6 or 7 psi of turbo boost is not uncommon. Fewer people are running over 10 psi, but the ones that do are seeing accordingly more power. Start getting into that range and (besides the injectors that you'd always need with a turbo kit) you'll be needing an upgraded fuel pump, too.
